P3D Why is 2d better than 3D?

Can't imagine anyone who isn't thinking in terms of 3D saying "2d"
photography.  Others just say "photography."  Therefore, 2d is better than
3D because you have to understand 3D before you will say 2d.  You must have,
then, risen to greater heights, or depths, or distance, or something that
gets space into your head. Saying "2d" reveals where you are.

Actually, saying "3D" falls better on the ear, even as it is fuller on the
eye.
